Hi James

The reason you are are not seeing an envelope next to your name when you post is because you are not supplying a valid email address when you are posting

We have put a * against the fields that are required, if you do not supply a valid email address then the small envelope will not be generated

Supplying a valid email address is part of our terms and conditions for posting

Nothing sinister is going on

Peter

PS: If you click on someones email envelope and it does not open or give an error, this may be because you are not using an email client such as Outlook, Thunderbird etc, it cannot open your google or hotmail account. You can always click on the black figure next to you name to send them a private message or ask for their email address
